Chainsaw massacre

Last time I went out to cut fire wood (yes I heat my house with wood) both my chainsaws broke... Since that time, I've had some friends cut me some wood so I've had plenty but now I have to take action.  I have to get them fixed.  I keep two running saws in case one breaks.  Never have both gone south on the same day.  It was a new and exciting happening and all the peasants rejoiced.

I think the old Poulan is already back in working order thanks to Dad, who knows something about chainsaws.  But the Echo...the most expensive saw I ever owned...is still just locked up.  I'm afraid it's going to get expensive.  I hate expensive...

Update at a later time...

Ready for Daytona!

Last August I wrote an article about how I was tired of NASCAR and was ready for football.  I take it back!  Daytona is in the offing and I'm excited!  Let's go racing!

Pre-Game Prediction

This is posted before the game:  Check the times if you don't believe it:

Superbowl Prediction:  Saints 34, Colts 31

New Orleans will have to work hard to take it from the Colts.  But they're also hungry and ready.  Indianapolis will be complacent and confident.  It will cost them.  They will be brutalized in the first half and then play real football the second half -- but it won't be enough to catch the Saints.

There. I said it.

Let's see what happens.

Update 20 FEB 2010: I missed on the score.  But the Saint's won!  Go Superbowl Saints!
